Do not place items such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or
plastic wrappings on top of the cooktop when it is in use. These items could melt or
ignite. Potholders, towels or wood could catch fire if placed too close to the element.
Surface Cooking
Cookware
Cookware should have flat bottoms that
make good contact with the entire surface

The cookware material determines how evenly and quickly heat is transferred from the surface element to the pan bottom.
The most popular materials available are:
ALUMINUM - Excellent heat conductor. Some types of food will cause it to darken (Anodized aluminum cookware resists
staining & pitting). If aluminum pans slide across the ceramic glass cooktop, they may leave metal marks which will
resemble scratches. Remove these marks immediately.
COPPER - Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily. May leave metal marks on ceramic glass (see Aluminum above).
STAINLESS
STEEL - Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking results. Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.
CAST IRON - A poor heat conductor however will retain heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature is
reached. Not recommended for use on ceramic cooktops.
PORCELAIN-ENAMEL
on METAL - Heating characteristics will vary depending on base material. Porcelain-enamel
coating must be smooth to avoid scratching ceramic cooktops.
GLASS - Slow heat conductor. Not recommended for ceramic cooktop surfaces because it may scratch the glass.
Before Setting Oven Controls
Oven Vent Location
-ModeJs with CoiJ Elements
The oven is vented through the right rear coil
element. When the oven is on, warm air is released
through the vent(s). This venting is necessary for
proper air circulation in the oven and good baking
results. DO NOT block the vent(s). Doing so may
cause cooking failures, fire or damage to the
appliance.
Removing and Replacing Oven Racks
To remove, pull the rack forward until it stops. Lift up front of
rack and slide out. To replace, fit the rack onto the guides on
the oven walls. Tilt the front of the rack upward and slide the
rack back into place.

Air Circulation
in the Oven
For best air circulation and baking results allow 2-4" (5-10 cm) around
the cookware for proper air circulation and be sure pans and cookware
do not touch each other, the oven door, sides or back of the oven
cavity. The hot air must circulate around the pans and cookware in
the oven for even heat to reach around the food.

Broil on one side until the food is browned; turn and cook on the second side. Season and serve. Always pull rack out to
the "stop" position before turning or removing food.
Broiling times vary, so watch the food closely. Time not only depends on the distance from the element, but on the thickness
and age of meat, fat content and doneness preferred. The first side usually requires a few minutes longer than the second.
Frozen meats also require additional time.
Broiler Clean=UpTips:
•
To make cleaning easier, line bottom of the broiler pan with aluminum foil. DO NOT cover the broiler grid with foil.
•
To prevent grease from baking on, remove the broiler pan from the oven as soon as cooking is completed. Use hot pads
because the broiler pan is extremely hot. Pour off grease. Soak the pan in HOT, soapy water.
Clean the broiler pan as soon as possible after each use. If necessary, use soap-filled steel wool pads. Heavy scouring
may scratch the grid.

General Care & Cleaning
Porcelain
Enamel
(cont'd)
Adhere to the
Oven Cleaning
Porcelain has a smooth finish and is a type of glass fused to metal. Oven cleaners can be
used on all interior oven porcelain surfaces.
General Cleaning
Remove soils using hot, soapy water. Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid
content (such as milk, tomatoes, saukerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on the
surface as they may cause a dull spot even after cleaning.
To Remove Heavy Soil
1. Allow a dish of ammonia to sit in the oven overnight or for several hours with the oven
door closed. Clean softened spots using hot, soapy water. Rinse well with water and a
clean cloth.
2. If soil remains, use a soap-filled scouring pad or a nonabrasive cleaner. If necessary,
use an oven cleaner following manufacturer's instructions. DO NOT mix ammonia with
othercleaners.
Adhere to the following precautions when using oven cleaners:
1. DO NOT spray on the electrical controls or switches because it could cause a short
circuit and result in sparking or fire.
2. DO NOT allow a film from the cleaner to build up on the temperature sensing bulb
located at the top left rear corner of the oven; it could cause the oven to heat
improperly. Carefully wipe the bulb clean after each oven cleaning, being careful not to
move the bulb. A change in its position could affect how the oven bakes. Avoid
bending the bulb and capillary tube.
3. DO NOT spray any cleaner on the oven door trim or gasket, handles or any exterior
surfaces of the range, wood or painted surfaces. The cleaner can damage these
surfaces.
4. DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or
remove this gasket.
To Clean the Oven Bottom
The bake element is designed to be gently tilted using your hand from the front of the bake
element. This allow easier access to the oven bottom for cleaning. Be careful not to raise
the element more than 4 or 5 inches from the resting position.
Clean using hot, soapy water, a mild abrasive cleanser, a soap-filled abrasive pad or oven
cleaner following oven cleaner manufacturer's instructions.
DO NOT line the oven walls, bottom, racks or any other part of the appliance
with aluminum foil. Doing so will destroy heat distribution, produce poor baking results and
cause permanent damage to the oven interior (aluminum foil will melt to the interior surface
of the oven).
